It was brought to my attention from KB that a few customers and vendors have tried to call KB and get them to match the pricing I have been offering.

It it Kenne Bells policy to NOT reduce their prices.. ESPECIALLY when it comes to Total Performance or any of their other dealers. It is the wishes of Jim Bell, as well as the intentions of Total Performance Engineering, to become the largest KB distributor in the world. But most importantly, to protect the integrity of their dealer arrangements.

Unfortunately, a few vendors/customer have not agreed with Kenne Bells policies, and have been sending them emails, asking them to "explain" why they would not match my pricing. In some cases becoming very rude and demanding. Unfortunatelty some of the demands and unethical business prctices have caused drastic measures.

So KB has asked me to make a thread to let everyone know, there is no physical, possible, or even remote chance that KB will match or over ride my prices. It is just not in their business practice. They will NEVER under cut their dealer (TPE or ANY other dealer for that matter). When you buy from Kenne bell, it's retail, or nothing.. PERIOD...

My prices are set by "Total Performance Engineering" not KB. Kenne Bell has ZERO input on my sale. Just as they would not regulate any other dealer that wants to have a special on their kit

Being that Kenne Bell, is Total Performances' primary manufacturer, they do a TREMENDOUS amount for TPE, and if they requested we would chage our policies, we will do so in a moments notice.

BUT PLEASE, Kenne Bell will NOT under cut TPE or ANY of its other dealers. ALthough we are the distributor for the GM line, there are other KB dealers. Both through KB AND TPE. TPE will NEVER knowingly under cut a KB OR TPE dealer.

The bait and switch method has already been performed on one of the the forums members, he ultimaely ended up paying welllll over my pricing.

I truely hope it does not happen again.

Thanks Guys (and future customers)

BTW, This thread was at the request of KB, for the purpose of clarity..

Thanks Doug-E-Fresh...

This is actually for ECS as well..

I wrote the thread pretty late last night, and realized I forot to include the other KB dealers.

ECS is a KB dealer, as well as under distributor pricing from TPE.

It is, and always will be the policy of KB to never reduce the prices of their supercharger kits. Not only to under cut TPE, but ECS, and ANY other dealer for that matter. They just flat dont believe in it. This is the primary reason KB does their best to take care of the dealers, and in turn allows the dealers to provide the best possible pricing.

These people should know this. It's childish and absurd for somebody to call the company and expect them to undercut their bulk distributors. Some peoples' kids, I swear. No clue how the world operates.

Good luck, TotalPerformance crew. I hate you had to even deal with so much stupidity.

You dont have to..

I was requested to post a thread on behalf of KB's dealers, in order to let people know that KB backs the dealers pricing. it does not affect the customer in ANY way.

Very simple..

Your NOT required to buy a S/C from my company, or any other KB delaer. You are 100% entitled to purchase directly from KB, with no questions asked..

Hope that clarifys it a tad.
